If you are a victim of sexual assault…

Get to a place where you feel safe.

Reach out for support.
Call someone you trust, like a friend or
family member.

Contact a victim advocate
by calling the Family Center’s Crisis
Hotline
(715-421-1511) or the National Sexual
Assault Hotline (1-800-656-4673).

Seek medical attention as soon as possible. Medical care is
important to address any injuries you may
have and to protect against sexually
transmitted diseases and pregnancy.

Report to the police.
It is your decision to file a report or to
go forward with an investigation, and you do
not have to make it immediately. However, if
you decide to file a report, it is best to
do this as soon as possible. If you are
making an immediate police report, evidence
may be preserved in the following ways: do
not wash, bathe, or brush your teeth; don't
remove sheets or clothes; and don't
straighten up or touch anything in the area
where the assault took place.
